It seems time for boards to get involved in preparedness in a broad sense. At the interface between the political level, civil society, critical infrastructure, including finance, the board must define the board-relevant risk management and societal thinking for preparedness.
Finland stands out as a best practice in building resilience around economic security, supply chain resilience and public/private preparedness and has established the National Emergency Supply Agency with the following mission: ”We work together to build a crisis-resistant society so that even in a crisis, Finnish society will keep functioning and life will continue with minimal disruption”.

The Board Leadership Society's many conferences focus on classic themes such as value creation, governance, board leadership, trends in board work, and current topics. See the next three conferences below. The full conference program for the half-year can be found on the member page. As a member, you have the opportunity - through participation in the association's events - to keep up to date with the board's perspective on important topics, such as the board's tasks and work with AI, ESG, the board's geopolitical considerations, trends and challenges in executive remuneration, risk management, etc. Every year, you are invited to the association's New Year's Eve party and Foundations Day.
At The Board Leadership Society's events, a topic is typically approached from a variety of perspectives - academic angles with participation from professors, board chairs, board members, top advisors in the relevant field, etc. And we value dialogue across faculty and with participants. At most conferences, you can choose between physical and virtual participation.
Most conferences take place between 17:00 and 19:00, but a small number of conferences are typically of longer duration and may be scheduled at other times. Occasionally there will also be short Board Briefs, typically between 9.30 and 10.30.
